hi,

Yes, during previous attempt to remove the files, Andrew said that it
was used internally in his former company. I had no serious reason to
remove it, so we kept it back then.
But now it seems the situation has evolved and we must consider the move
to a single kernel image and the will to clean the include/asm/mach
directory.

SAN People will just need to maintain a custom patch / driver for this.
No reason to delay the progress of mainline.
